Note: Albert Sidney Aloe was born in 1841 in Edinburgh, Scotland and immigrated to America as a child. After world travels and adventure, he settled in St. Louis in 1860, going into business with his father dealing optical goods. By 1885 he struck out on his own creating A.S. Aloe & Company which would last 76 years and handed down to successive generations. Albert S. Aloe is a classic example of the American success story, landing in New York City as a child and ending his career as a prominent citizen. He was active in his community holding offices at various times in the Masonic Order, Order of Odd Fellows, Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks, and the Legion of Honor.
